CO – 100th Anniversary for Lithuania

2018 Independence Commemoration

Join us in celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the restoration of the independent state of Lithuania and 28 years since the reestablishment of that independence. 100 years ago on February 16, 1918, Lithuanian proclaimed its independence from Russia and entered the modern list of nations. 28 years ago on March 11, 1990, Lithuania was the first of the Soviet Republics to declare its departure from the USSR.

On February 18, 2018 we will celebrate this event with a dinner and cultural event. Presentations will be made by our new children’s Lithuanian school, our local Ruta Folkdancers and, from Lithuania, the folkloric group RONGĖ. Be prepared to sing and dance, Lithuanian style.
